In fact, Nangong Jue himself had no intention of killing Dongfang Feiyun, and he was not his enemy. The reason why he did this was purely to scare Dongfang Feiyun and play a trick.
Walking off the stage, Nangong Jue smiled easily. Now he has successfully entered the quarterfinals, one step closer to the top three in the competition.
Dongfang Feiyun's face was full of disappointment. He was the only member of the Dongfang Family to advance to the top sixteen, and now that he has lost, the Dongfang Family is destined to be unable to get into the top three.
Of course, what he cares about is not the false reputation of the top three, but that it is related to whether he can enter the dead zone. Now that the Dongfang Family has no chance to be among the top three in the competition, it means that they will miss the opportunity to enter the Death Realm.
Dongfang Hong was sitting in the seat of the Dongfang Family, with no expression on his face, but he would definitely not feel comfortable after seeing such a result.
All the elders also looked helpless, this time the Dabi Dongfang Family was over.
"Master, we still lost after all. We still have no way to qualify for the Death Realm!" An elder sighed.
"It is true that we cannot obtain the qualifications for the Dead Realm, but as long as some of us can enter the Dead Realm, the Dongfang Family will still have a chance!" Dongfang Feiyun said.
Before the competition started, the heads of the nine major families had already discussed that no matter which family got the top three in the competition, they must allocate two quotas for the Dead Realm.
Therefore, even though the Dongfang Family has lost now, some people will still enter the Death Realm when the time comes. Maybe one person is a little less, but it is better than nothing.
"But what can a person do if he enters the Death Realm?" An elder shook his head and said.
Although they did not attend the family heads meeting, Dongfang Hong had already communicated the decisions of the previous family heads to these elders, so these elders knew that one of them could enter the death realm.
"You can't say that. Although only one of us can enter the Death Realm, it's better than none of us entering."
"That's right. Besides, it's not just one person from our Dongfang family who can go in. Only one person from the other six families can go in. If everyone can unite by then, it won't be a big deal."
"Didn't the head of the family say that the Situ Family is willing to protect everyone? If we can follow the Situ Family or the Ji Family into the Death Realm, I think we will still gain something, right?"
"Follow the Situ family? Even if we can't even drink the soup, I can't stay with these big families. Or is it more beneficial for the six of us families to unite?
Think about it, even if each of the top three aristocratic families gave up two places, they would still have eighteen people. With so many people here, do you think if there is any benefit, they will let us get it? This is obviously impossible, so if we want to gain anything from entering the Dead Realm in our situation, we must unite the six families.
Even if something is discovered by then, everyone can share all the treasures equally, which is better than letting the three major families take away these harvests! "
"That's what I say, but it is not an easy task to unite six aristocratic families. Now that the Situ aristocratic family has spoken out, do you think the other aristocratic families will not try to curry favor with the Situ aristocratic family?"
"That's right. Alas, in the final analysis, we are still not united. If several aristocratic families can unite a little more, it is absolutely impossible to change to just one place!" Elder Yiqian thought about what Dongfang Hong told them in the meeting. After that, I felt angry and helpless.
These aristocratic families are so selfish. If they could unite a little and insist on two or more places at the meeting, how could they be so passive?
Now only one of them can enter the Death Realm, so what's the use? Maybe he had an accident and died before he even figured out what was going on inside.
But despite this, they were reluctant to give up such a great opportunity. If only one person could be sacrificed in exchange for the rise of the Dongfang Family, they would give it a try no matter what.
"It is absolutely impossible for us to follow the Situ family into the Dead Realm. The Situ Family cannot be trusted. If they really find any important treasure, maybe the first thing they will do is to silence them, so even if we want to enter the Dead Realm I can only think of a way on my own." Dongfang Hong suddenly said.
Chen Tianxing, the head of the Chen family, had also talked to him about this matter before, and he had the same idea. He could not trust the Situ family. Although only one of them can enter the Death Realm, if this person is handed over to the hands of the Situ family, it will be equivalent to death.
With the ambition of the Situ family, will he distribute the treasure he found to other families? Wouldn't that be shooting yourself in the foot? Naturally, it is impossible for the Situ family to be so stupid as to do such a thing.
"The situation in the Dead Zone is special. Although I have not been in it, I can make some guesses. It is an independent space, so it is naturally full of dangers.
However, whether our people went in with a few big families or acted alone, I think there is not much chance of coming back alive. Therefore, everything can only depend on God’s will! "An elder said.
"Cultivation as an immortal means fighting against the sky, and the same goes for the Dead Realm. No matter how dangerous it is inside, we still have to send people in to fight. Anyway, no one from our Dongfang family has entered the Dead Realm for so many years. Instead of doing this, it is better to send someone to go in. Try your luck.
If our Dongfang family really comes to rise, maybe this person can really gain something in the Dead Realm! "
"That's right!" Everyone nodded, feeling that this was also the case.
"Father, I'm sorry, I let the Dongfang family down!" Dongfang Feiyun walked up to Dongfang Hong with a disappointed look on his face and said in a low mood.
"It's not your fault. The top three spots in the Nine Clans Competition have always been the most fiercely contested. It's not easy for our Dongfang Family to reach this point. At least we didn't lose early like the Feng Family and Gongsun Family. He was eliminated, so there is nothing to regret!" Dongfang Hong said looking at his son.
He definitely felt uncomfortable losing this competition, but he could also see that his son also tried his best. Moreover, such a result had actually been expected by him.
What he has to consider now is who he wants to enter the Death Realm, so there is no point in worrying about this competition anymore.
Moreover, being able to see that the Feng family was eliminated before him made him feel much better.
However, although Dongfang Hong said this, Dongfang Feiyun himself did not think so. He had his own ambitions, but it was a pity that he was not strong enough and lost this competition.
He didn't speak, but it could be seen that he was still in a low mood.
